Noob too, you!

I go back to F-16 Fighting Falcon(Amiga 500, that game was sooo cool!), actually even FS2(on Atari, but FS2 sucked).

Just to remember:



Can't believe I played that, lol.

The 1980's PC version of F-16 Fighting Falcon had a good campaign mode whereby you flew one mission yourself and set targets for other flights under your control. Its something that would be nice to have in SOW.

After 6 years listening to Fritz, I´ve got tired of him. By now I´m using a female control tower voice which gives much more promising action after my landing

Would like to point for your attention that smoke and water steam from the tube of steam looks isn't correct (will be more dark and present more black at the acceleration of the steam. It is working, but smoke dencity isn't right yet. We put such things and other similar "bugs" to tune in final).
I think such details would show already now how the series maybe branched(or united) in future.
Great pics, Oleg, thanks! I´ve been wondering if that you and team could release to all of us a mini-demo, let´s say, Hurris x Heinkels or so, near the English coast as an appetizer before the final release. It´s been years of waiting for SOW-BOB and many release confirmed dates that didn´t came through. Don´t want to sound unrespectful nor ungrateful, but...Think about.

Best,

I wonder if in 25 years (assuming we make it that long) we will look at these games and wonder how we spent so many hours playing them? Our brains certainly did a lot of "filling in the blanks" back then.

Best,
It would be a great idea if the developers had the time, but its very highly unlikely. The demo could happen only if the publisher delayed releasing SOW.

Anyone who has it probably thought of it already but with all of the talk of pilot size going on recently why not just go get your copy of Battle Of Britain DVD out and watch it again for the twelve hundredth. I think the main ones missing are 110s and 88s but you have He 111s Spanish 109s, Hurricanes, Spitfires and after watching it you'll be even more depressed )

He told me a great story which should interest you - he was driving a steam engine with a goods train near Nottingham one night, I think after the Battle of Britain, and was strafed by a Luftwaffe nightfighter. He didn't realise that they had been strafed until they stopped at a signal and the guard came running up saying they had been attacked and the back of the train was on fire!

That's a good story, thanks for sharing!
